I would like to derive audio wordclock from HDMI. ...

I would like to derive audio wordclock from HDMI. My ADC will accept AES as wordclock. Can I use this with CONVMBHS24K6G "HDMI to SDI 6G Mini Converter" to embed silent audio (perhaps from unconnected analog inputs?) and then extract the silence to use as wordclock with this device?
Asked by: Miles
I'm not sure if it is necessary to feed silent audio but you certainly can. If there is no audio on an SDI track the AES audio out will be silent.

What is the latency between the SDI video and analogue audio?
Asked by: Brandon
According to Blackmagic Design, The Mini Converter SDI to HDMI has a delay of less than a single line of video, except when it needs to convert PsF to P, which will take one frame. The Analog to SDI has a four line delay.

I'm thinking of using this to send ATEM program audio back to a Blackmagic Studio 4k Pro camera, in addition to the return feed. If I plug the ATEM Switcher's return SDI into this or the even 4k version of this, will the SDI loop out be able to pass camera control, tally, reference, etc. to the camera?
Asked by: Anthony

You need 4 TRS to TS or XLR, insert style cables to get out of the 4 connectors on the box to 8 inputs on a mixer.
